Текст песни: Keepsake Day + перевод

Oh, the grey cat’s asleep on the patchwork I keep

On the rocking chair here in the kitchen

My new boots fit well, and so far’s I can tell

I can wear them with the socks I’ve been knitting

And I’ve opened a letter from my dearest friend

That she wrote in the old-fashioned way

And I smiled, and I sighed, and I laughed and I cried;

I believe I’ll be keeping today

Na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na

Na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na

I put on some music I’ve loved half my life

And the bread that I started is rising

The postman dropped by so I made him some tea

He’s a friend, so it’s not that surprising (hi Jim!)

I wrapped him some cake that was yesterday’s bake

I wrapped him some cake that was yesterday’s bake

And the bread’s singing too, in its way;

And the bread’s singing too, in its way;

And a dear child’s been ill, but she’s going on well;

And a dear child’s been ill … but she’s going on well …

I believe I’ll be keeping today

And so my heart sings for these simple small things —

I believe I’ll be keeping today …

I believe I’ll be keeping today …
